Cookie Policy

When you use our websites, mobile applications, and online services (the “Sites”), we may store cookies on your web browser. Other third parties you choose to visit may do the same. This Cookie Policy explains what a cookie is, how you can manage your cookies, and what kind of cookies may be on our Sites.

1. WHAT IS A COOKIE AND WHY DO WE USE THEM?

A cookie is a small file that can be placed on your device that allows us to recognize and remember you. It is sent to your browser and stored on your computer’s hard drive or tablet or mobile device. When you visit our Sites, we may collect information from you automatically through cookies or similar technology. Cookies can help a website remember your preferences, learn which areas of the website are useful and which areas need improvement, and provide you with targeted advertisements or personalized content. Sometimes, cookies are enabled when pixels are placed on a website. Pixels are also referred to as web beacons, clear gifs, and tags. Pixels enable websites to read and place cookies.

First-party cookies and third-party cookies

Cookies can be first-party or third-party. A first-party cookie is one that you receive directly from JVCKENWOOD USA Corporation when visiting our Site(s). A third-party cookie is one that you have received from another party, such as Google or Facebook. We do not control what third parties do on other sites. However, we may work with certain third-party providers such as Google Analytics to permit their cookies to function through our Site so we can learn more about your web experience on our Site and better personalize our services for you.

Persistent and session cookies

A persistent cookie is a cookie that is stored by the web browser on your device until it expires or you delete it. The expiration of a persistent cookie is determined by the creator of the cookie and can be upon a certain date or after a length of session time has passed. This means that, for the cookie's entire lifespan, its information will be transmitted to the creator’s server every time the user visits the website that it belongs to or another website configured to check for that cookie (such as an advertisement placed on that website). For this reason, persistent cookies are also called “tracking cookies.”

A session cookie is created temporarily on your device for use by a website during your visit. This type of cookie may store information you enter and track your activity within the website. A session cookie is deleted after you leave the website or when the web browser is closed. A good example of a session cookie is the shopping cart on an e-commerce site. The session cookie stores the items that you add to your cart so they are not forgotten while you view products on other pages of the website. Using a session cookie, the items will all be in the cart when you go to the checkout page.

2. WHAT KIND OF COOKIES DO WE USE?

The Site may use Strictly Necessary Cookies, Performance Cookies and Functional Cookies, as defined below. Any of these may be first-party cookies or third-party cookies, persistent or session.

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are cookies without which you would not be able to use this Site. For example, Strictly Necessary Cookies adjust the Site data transmitted to match your Internet connection, get you to the secure versions of the Site, and help provide services you specifically request. If you set your browser to block these cookies, some parts of the Site will not work. Strictly Necessary Cookies do not store any information that generally identifies you as an individual (“Personal Information”).
  • Performance Cookies: We use these cookies to count visits and traffic sources, to measure and improve Site performance. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. Performance Cookies do not store any Personal Information.
  • Functional Cookies: These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make and provide enhanced functionality and more personalized features. Depending on context, Functional Cookies may store certain types of Personal Information as needed to provide functionality.

3. HOW DO I MANAGE COOKIES?

You can manage the cookies on our Site through our “Cookie Preferences” manager.

If you use our Cookie Preferences on a mobile device, we process your device’s advertising identifier. When you access our Cookie Preferences, session cookies will be set by the ad networks listed in our Cookie Preferences to honor your preferences if you choose not to receive interest-based advertising.

If you clear your browser cookies, this will remove all cookies including the opt-out cookies set by the companies. You will need to re-access the opt-out tool to reset your preferences. Our cookie only knows your last set of preferences and does not reflect the current state of cookies on your browser.

4. UPDATES TO THIS COOKIE POLICY

We may change this Cookie Policy at any time. Any changes in this Cookie Policy will become effective when the revised Cookie Policy is available on or through the Site.
